Synopsis

The ability to solve problems is a key workplace skill that will increase your value and help you stand out from the competition. Expert problem-solvers are an essential part of any high-performing team and are often first in line when it comes to hiring and promotion.

This fun and engaging workshop introduces you to a range of tools to solve problems more effectively and make better decisions. You will be working on case studies where you can immediately put your new skills into practice. It will be specially conducted by a professional trainer working with the British Council (Singapore). By the end of it, you will be better able to generate creative solutions to problems, decide on the best solution using quantitative tools, assess and manage risks better and learn how to build consensus for your solution. Such skills will help you perform better during Law school and also give you a valuable headstart in your career.
